Question

A horizontal power line of length 58.0 m carries a current of 2.20 kA northward as shown in Figure P 29.39. The Earth’s magnetic field at this location has a magnitude of $5.00 \times 10^{-5} \mathrm{T}$ . The field at this location is directed toward the north at an angle $65.0^{\circ}$ below the power line. Find (a) the magnitude and (b) the direction of the magnetic force on the power line.

Name: A horizontal power line of length 58.0 m carries a current of 2.20 kA northward as shown in Figure P 29.39. The Earth’s magnetic field at this location has a magnitude of 5.00 × 10^-5T . The field at this location is directed toward the north at an angle 65.0^∘ below the power line. Find (a) the magnitude and (b) the direction of the magnetic force on the power line.
